Directed by Joshua Kahan Brody

Co-production with Berkeley Repertory Theatre

It’s the �nal night of Kanaval in Haiti, and a

group of abandoned children spend it trading

fantastic folktales until the line between reality

to leave for a new life but discovers the story of

his future and past are in the hands of someone

else. Set in a world that is utterly real and

remarkably imaginative, this unforgettable new

play from Jeff Augustin weaves Haitian lore into a

contemporary narrative of survival and betrayal.

In 1922, famed director William Desmond Taylor

is found murdered in his home. The celebrity

suspects mount as the headlines explode with

lurid reports of love triangles, hush money and

deception. Enter Will Hays, Hollywood’s newly

appointed moral watchdog, determined to

silence the scandal and purify this increasingly

corrupt city. Based on the true story of Taylor’s

unsolved murder, Hollywood is a noir thriller

set in the Golden Age of movies by Tony Award

winner Joe DiPietro.

Joe DiPietro and Playhouse Artistic Director

Christopher Ashley have enjoyed a long history

of collaboration on such acclaimed productions

JUNK: The Golden Age of Debt JULY 26-AUGUST 21, 2016

MANDELL WEISS THEATRE By Ayad Akhtar

Directed by Doug Hughes

The Deal. The Board Room. The Takeover.

This is the battleground where titanic egos

collide, where modern day kings are made

and unmade. It’s a world where debt is an

asset and assets are excuses for more debt,

a world where �nance runs the show. How did

we get here? How did the world we once knew

change?

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ayad Akhtar takes

us back to the hotbed of the ‘80s and offers

us an origin story for the world that �nance

has given us, a sexy and epic thriller about an

upstart genius hell-bent on changing all the

rules. (FAST-PACED THRILLER)

Ayad Akhtar wrote the Playhouse’s world-

premiere production of The Who & The What.

He is the author of the novel American Dervish,

and the play Disgraced which won the 2013

Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

We’ve all heard it before: you are what

you eat.

In fact, that oft-repeated phrase is credited

to French author Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, who

wrote all the way back in 1826, “Tell me what

you eat and I will tell you what you are.”

While most accept a basic correlation

between nutrition and overall health, the idea

that the right food prepared in the right way

could treat or reverse certain aliments, even

cancer, has often met with resistance, said

Dr. Gordon Saxe, director of research and

a founding member of the UC San Diego

Center for Integrative Medicine.

But when it comes to nutrition as

medicine, the times are a-changin’—or have

already changed.

“I’ve dealt with doubters for decades,”

he said. “Nowadays, there aren’t many

skeptics left. They’ve mostly either converted

or died off.”

Saxe remains very much focused on

the living and how proper nutrition can

improve a person’s health and well-being.

Along with Lauray MacElhern, who serves

as the managing director of the Center for

Integrative Medicine, Saxe has designed

a combined hands-on cooking course that

draws on “nutrition science, epidemiology

and time-tested” principles to offer up self-

healing concepts centered around meals that

are easy to prepare and enjoyable to eat.

“You can have all the education and

information in the world, but if it’s not practical,

you are not going to use it,” MacElhern said.

The classes have been popular—

especially among students and health

professionals who want to incorporate this as

By JENNIFER DAVIES

Cooking Up a Healthy Lifepart of clinical care. So Saxe and MacElhern

have been searching for the right partners

to help keep up with demand.

“What we are trying to do is establish a

deeply rooted approach to the use of food

as medicine—and to offer it on a large and

broad scale,” Saxe added, “We want to help

transform healthcare from inside-out.”

McElhern agreed, adding, “We need to

train more people on how to use and teach

this approach so we can reach even more

people with this empowering and potentially

life-saving knowledge.”

To accomplish that, the Center for

Integrative Medicine has teamed up with UC

San Diego Extension to offer a certi�cate in

Integrative Nutrition starting this fall.

Grace Miller, director of UC San Diego

Extension’s Healthcare and Behavioral


DR. GORDON SAXE AND LAURAY MACELLHORN

Summer 2016 | extension.ucsd.edu | (858) 534-3400 9

Sciences Division, said the new certi�cate

will be online, allowing a wide variety of

people—including nurses, physicians, case

managers, caretakers, dieticians, and, of

course, those who are interested in eating

healthy—to access the content.

“Online learning certainly ups the

scalability of the program,” Miller said. “It

almost becomes a train-the-trainers model.”

MacElhern said providing this type of

information is critical as more people are

seeking complementary and alternative

therapies (now referred to as “integrative

medicine”), especially food and natural

products. A National Institutes of Health

survey from 2007 found that 83 million

adults spent $33.9 billion out-of-pocket on

complementary and alternative care. Of that

total, almost $15 billion was spent on non-

vitamin, non-mineral, and natural products.

“People are demanding this as part of

their overall health care,” she said.

Recipe for HealthEating healthy can mean many things to

many people, but Saxe said the best diet is

one that is whole-food and primarily plant-

based.

“It’s what is optimal for most people,” he said.

Saxe stressed that there are a couple of

important keys. One is the concept of eating

cooked or raw foods in their natural state

- whole and unre�ned – not processed or

chemicalized. A second is that the foundation

of our diets should be a diverse array of plant

foods. This doesn’t mean that one must be

a strict vegan; only that most of what you

eat is plant-based. While vegan diets can be

among the healthiest if properly balanced

and based on whole foods, veganism per se

is not necessarily healthy.

“Oreo cookies and even Bacon Bits may

technically be vegan,” he said. “But they’re really

not part of a whole food, plant-based diet.”

There are certain foods that are helpful

for certain health issues.

One of his patients presented during an

acute �are-up of severe Crohn’s disease, a

condition from which she had long suffered.

While her other doctors recommended that

she have her colon removed, she wanted to

avoid this at all costs.

Saxe recommended the patient begin

to eat congee, a porridge of slow-cooked

whole grains, such as brown rice, that can

be traced back to the physicians of ancient

China and is used in other cultures under

different names. According to Saxe, congee,

which is soothing, ant-in�ammatory, and

easily digested and absorbed, almost

immediately began to do the trick, eliminating

the severe pain and bowel symptoms of her

Crohn’s disease. Today, about two years

later, she remains free of the disease.

“We were evolved to eat food,” he said,

and because of that, our bodies are less

equipped to absorb medicine and vitamins in

pill form. “With many problems, we can use

food as medicine.”

Of course, a better diet is not the answer

for all illnesses or conditions.

“If I’m in a car accident, get me to a

trauma center,” Saxe said. “That’s not the

time to have a discussion about diet.”

Discovering the PossibilitiesSaxe and MacElhern are hardly new

to the cause of integrative nutrition and

complementary medicine. Still, both made

their way to this passion via different paths.

For Saxe, it was his father’s cancer

diagnosis that fueled his interest.

“I was just out of college and I stumbled

across this,” Saxe said. “My dad was told he

had less than a year to live. Together, we

worked to improve his diet. Whether it was

the diet or just the hope that it gave him, he

lived another 10 years, mostly good quality.

That time was a gift.”

Saxe, who received his MD from Michigan

State University, his PhD in epidemiology

from the University of Michigan, and his MPH

in nutrition from Tulane University, said he

wanted to provide the empirical data behind

the link between food choices and the ability

to protect against a range of maladies,

including diabetes, heart disease, and

cancer. Much of Saxe’s research, which has

received funding from the National Institutes

of Health, the American Cancer Society,

and The Cancer Project, has focused on the

potential of diet to control the spread and

improve survival in such cancers as prostate,

breast, and pancreas.

Ingredients:

2 cloves of garlic, chopped

2–3 Tbsp ginger, peeled and grated

(add more to taste)

1½ bunches of stemmed carrots

(about 9 medium carrots)

3 Tbsp olive oil

4 cups vegetable broth

1 large onion, diced

1 tsp Lapsang Souchong brewed tea

(or smoked paprika)

Sea salt, to taste

Instructions:

Heat oil, 2 Tbsp broth, onions, ginger and

garlic in soup pan. Sauté until onions are

caramelized, then add garlic and ginger and

sauté for another minute or two.

Add remaining broth, tea, and carrots.

Bring to a simmer. Cook until carrots are soft

and will break with a fork. If soup seems too

thick, add more broth to adjust consistency.

Remove pan from heat. Wait a few minutes

for soup to cool before blending.

Blending:

*Warning: blending soup at a warm to high

temperature can cause the blender cap to

explode. Make sure your soup has cooled

and that there is a small air vent at top when

blending. Never blend towards your face and

always start on the lowest setting.

In small batches, about 1 cup each, blend

the soup to a thin puree. Blend longer for a

creamier soup. I recommend a well-blended

soup rather than a chunky one for this recipe.

Once all the soup is blended, re-pour into

soup pan and allow to simmer until it is ready

to be served. Re-heating the soup will lead to a

thinner, less airy consistency. You may notice

some ‘air bubbles’ in the soup right after the

puree—this is normal.

Garnish with chopped green onion, sliced

radish, or a sprig of parsley.

practically born to her work in integrative

medicine.

“My parents had a real passion for

nutrition. They took lots of courses in

macrobiotics, and I grew up going to

naturopaths,” she said. “That was my life:

being the weird kid eating seaweed and tofu

and being made fun of for being so strange.”

Being different became her strength,

eventually leading her to advocate for

nutrition at an international level to help

promote a healthier society. MacElhern has

“ What we are trying to do is establish a deeply rooted approach to the use of food as medicine—and to offer it on a large and broad scale.”

Ingredients:

2 large cucumbers, peeled

2 medium daikon radishes

1 TBL dried wakame seaweed

Sauce

1/3 cup rice vinegar

2 TBL brown rice syrup

1½ tsp minced fresh ginger root

2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Pinch of sea salt (to taste)

Preparation:

Cut cucumbers in half lengthwise and scoop

out any large seeds. Slice crosswise into

very thin slices. Cut daikon radishes into

very thin slices. Place dried wakame seaweed

in a bowl of water for 10 minutes and watch

it expand to nearly 10 times in size! Place

all ingredients in a large bowl. In a small

bowl, combine seasoned vinegar, rice syrup,

salt and ginger. Mix well. Pour sauce on top

of ingredients in large bowl and stir until

ingredients are coated. Stir in sesame seeds

and reserve a few for sprinkling on top. For

best results, refrigerate this �nished recipe for

1 hour before serving. Will keep up to 3 days in

refrigerator.

In addition, the center recently received

a considerable research endowment from

a “lifelong believer in the healing power of

foods and herbs” Saxe said. It’s the largest

endowment at any academic institution in the

U.S. to support integrative medicine research,

especially with regard to nutrition

“Even in the early 2000s, there were few

people who were interested in this,” Saxe

said. “Not anymore. Health care providers

see this as central to their mission. The

landscape has changed enormously. And the

potential to contribute to the transformation of

healthcare is real.” n

Ingredients:

9 cups water

2 cups dry red lentils

2 carrots, sliced

2 onions, chopped

2 zucchini, sliced

½ head cauli�ower,

in bite-sized pieces

Preparation:

1. Heat onions in a large soup pot on medium heat, adding small amounts of water to

prevent sticking. Add the spices except ginger and garnish. Stir and cook on medium heat

until the onions have developed a caramelized appearance, about 6 minutes.

2. Add water, chopped vegetables, lentils, and ginger to pot.

3. Bring soup to a boil on high heat; then reduce heat to medium-low, and allow the stew to

simmer, covered, until vegetables and lentils are tender, about 12-15 minutes.

4. Ladle stew into bowls and garnish with something fresh & green, like cilantro, parsley or

green onion.

Savory Red Lentils

Spices

1 Tbl. Ginger, shredded fresh or powdered

1 tsp. curry powder

1 tsp. chili powder

1 tsp. garlic powder

¼ tsp. cayenne pepper to taste (optional, for spicy version)

1 tsp. salt

run a Washington, D.C.-based nonpro�t

organization whose award-winning cooking

classes in cancer centers and hospitals has

educated over 100,000 people in 160 cities

and eight countries.

MacElhern and Saxe know their work is no

longer looked at as outside the mainstream.

They point out that the Center for Integrative

Medicine, rooted in primary care in the UC

San Diego Health System, is able to refer

patients back-and-forth with almost every

department in the Medical Center. They also

have a long list of medical students who

are clamoring to be a part of their efforts.

Middle school students and engineering

hardly seem like an easy or potent mix.

However, if you walk into the Qualcomm®

Thinkabit Lab™, the energy and excitement

one feels is palpable.

In one area, teachers are working with

their students on how to redesign their

classrooms to better inspire learning and

collaboration. Around the corner, other

students are learning the basics of computer

coding. Off to the right, a few educators lounge

in a brightly colored room �lled with more than

a dozen bean bag chairs and signs listing

careers and personality characteristics.

While it might seem like a jumble of

activity, the aim of the Thinkabit Lab is quite

clear: to introduce these students not only to

marvels of engineering and innovation, but to

the world of work and engineering.

It is also a place where dreams begin to

take seed, said Ed Hidalgo, senior director

of government affairs at Qualcomm and the

driving force behind Thinkabit.

“This is about inspiring kids from all socio

and economic backgrounds to get interested

in STEAM (which is short for science,

technology, engineering, arts and math) and

exposing educators to new environments

and maybe new ways to teach,” he said.

Since opening in March 2014, Thinkabit

has welcomed thousands of sixth- through

eighth-graders from around the region to

explore a variety of careers as well as learn

the basic building blocks of engineering.

The reasoning is simple. Young people

may have access to the many wonders of

today’s technology, but it’s unlikely they

realize that many San Diego companies are

deeply involved in that growth. And here’s the

big thing: this lets them know they can one

day be a part of it.

David Miyashiro, the superintendent of

the Cajon Valley Union School District, said

Thinkabit is helping transform education

locally and beyond.

“Ed has catalyzed the conversation about

education across the county and now across

the country,” he said. “He created a solution

for K–12 education when we didn’t know a

problem existed.”

That problem facing schools, Miyashiro

explained, is that education has not kept up

with the demands of the innovation economy.

“The skills and experience kids need

today are creativity and collaboration,” he

said. “Our curriculum doesn’t always re�ect

that.”

Thinkabit was born from a program

Hidalgo lead at Qualcomm to boost job

satisfaction and career management among

its employees. He realized that the positive

impact that it had on employees, could

be expanded and be especially useful to

students who were beginning to think about

possible careers.

“People were often searching for greener

pastures, and what we found was they were

often in the right role, but they didn’t know

how to develop in that role or how to get

ED HILDALGO

QUALCOMM THINKABIT LAB: Giving Students Something to Think About

By JENNIFER DAVIES

There is even a plan for a Thinkabit Lab in

northern Virginia.

The increased reach is important,

Hidalgo said, because Thinkabit is changing

kids’ lives by giving them a window into a

brighter future.

Recently, a student at the Thinkabit Lab

seemed so withdrawn that the Thinkabit staff

thought something was wrong. One of the

team members’ went over to check on him,

asking if he was OK.

“He sat up and said, ‘I’ve just been sitting

here thinking: how can I work here one day,’”

Hidalgo said. “These kids internalize the

lessons they learn here. They are like. ‘I’ve

got to do this.’” n

prepared for their next move. They didn’t

know how to change their situation,” he said.

“We wanted to help teach people to own

their career because today it is no longer a

career ladder but a career lattice. You need

to be able to manage your career in all

different directions.”

With that, he led a team that helped

develop a program in which people could

explore their strengths and interests so they

can be better informed regarding their career

choices.

“It was like, ‘Wow, there can be so much

impact if we take these assessments and

high quality coaching and help students

discover their unique strengths, interests and

values and discover where they could be

needed in the world,’” Hidalgo said.

Ed Abeyta, assistant dean for community

engagement and director of pre-college

programs for UC San Diego Extension,

and who works closely with Hidalgo on

STEAM initiatives, said Hidalgo has the

right approach to engaging young people to

envision their future.

“Thinkabit focuses on exposing the

students to many different options instead of

having an individual pursue a career without

any insight into how that career �ts with a

student’s talents or personality,” Abeyta said.

Because of that, Thinkabit’s world of work

is wide open with possibilities, and students

are asked to consider a variety of careers,

including that of a writer, graphic designer,

chef, and, of course, an engineer.

Still, the Thinkabit Lab is �rmly committed

to STEAM education—with classes in

coding and robotics—that also incorporates

creativity and teamwork.

“The real magic is when you have

engineering combined with art,” Hidalgo said

“And our team has done an amazing job

of creating a student centered space that

combines art and engineering.”

To spread that magic to a larger

audience, Hidalgo and team knew they

needed help; so they paired up with

UC San Diego Extension to launch the

STEAM Channel, an online channel that

explores all facets of science, technology,

engineering, arts, and math through

cutting-edge programming. UC San Diego

Extension runs UCTV (www.uctv.tv/) and

also has a number of online channels,

including the Brain Channel and the Career

Channel. Since it �rst launched in March

2015, the STEAM Channel has had more

than 1.8 million hits.

“The STEAM Channel is huge because

there are so many schools that can’t come

to us,” Hidalgo said. “We can take this online

and create a global platform.”

To reach even more students and

prepare them for local jobs, Thinkabit

has expanded its reach by opening three

Thinkabit Labs at three local middle schools:

in San Diego, Chula Vista and Vista. They

are also working to support the Mayor’s

initiative to create more makerspaces in

the region by partnering with other local

corporations like SeaWorld and Raytheon.

Insights from SEO Expert Alan Bush

While perusing jobs on Craigslist in

2007, Alan Bush came across one that

looked interesting—a project manager for

search engine optimization (SEO)—so he

applied. The very next day he scored an

interview with a prominent Internet marketing

company, not even knowing what SEO was.

“Before I met with the company’s CEO, I

had to look up SEO on Wikipedia because I

had no idea what that word meant,” he said of

the growing �eld of SEO, which in its essence

uses a variety of strategies, techniques, and

tactics to increase the amount of visitors to a

website.

Nevertheless, Bush landed the job and

has been hooked on SEO ever since.

“I liked SEO because it was an emerging

technology,” said Bush, who worked as an

executive assistant, �nancial analyst, and

loan broker before joining the SEO revolution.

“You have to be a marketer, and it combines

things I was good at: working with people,

website technologies, creativity, content

strategy, and analytics. I was managing

people’s campaigns; it was exciting to see

those strategies work.”

Nearly a decade later, Bush is a premier

digital marketing expert and sought-after

SEO specialist, having worked with hundreds

of clients (both Fortune 500 and start-ups)

and even cocreating and cohosting two

popular Internet marketing-related podcasts.

He has certainly ridden the wave of success

with SEO, one of the fastest growing forms of

Internet marketing.

Bush, currently the director of strategy

of San Diego-based Internet marketing �rm

Ignite Visibility, also shares his SEO wisdom

via Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and

Marketing, a course through UC San Diego

Extension. Through the class, students learn

how to optimize websites for better rankings

with top search engines; rewrite HTML

code, titles and tags; choose competitive

keywords; write optimized content; and create

a successful linking plan.

The bene�ts of SEO, Bush said, include

enhanced visibility, better brand awareness,

ALAN BUSH

and thought process. SEO incorporates

content, social media, technical knowledge,

and understanding of how a website works.

People who are not traditionally marketers,

but a graphic designer, for example, can

learn SEO, which is going to add to her

repertoire of what she can accomplish—she

can design websites and market them, so

she will add value to her job.

“I’m not only teaching my students what

to do, but why they are doing it,” Bush added.

“It’s important to understand the strategy

behind it. It’s not just about plugging in a

key word; it’s about teaching them how to

be marketers and how to think. They are

increasing their value because they bring

a specialty to the table. I thoroughly enjoy

teaching and conveying my experience to

bright and wonderful students. It’s rewarding

for me.” n


and increased sales. He likens SEO to tuning

up a car—it ultimately runs better.

“SEO is the foundation of all digital

marketing,” the University of Southern

California graduate said. “With SEO, you

have to clearly articulate what you are trying

to convey, make the website user-friendly

and search-engine-friendly, and reach out to

in�uencers as well as your customers. If you

can master SEO, you have a solid foundation

for any other type of digital marketing.”

Bush—who spent much of his youth

in Cape Cod, Massachusetts—said SEO

has evolved so much in the last few years

that marketers sometimes have a hard time

keeping up.

“More and more tools have been taken

away from an SEO’s arsenal,” he said.

“Google is constantly changing the direction

of what can and cannot be utilized for SEO.

It’s a constant challenge to keep up with

the emerging technologies, updates, and

penalties associated with your website on

search engines.”

Bush said the continued rise of mobile

technology will greatly impact SEO, and

websites that are not mobile friendly will be

missing out on opportunities.

“Because mobile is becoming more

and more accessible, it’s important to pay

attention to how the user experience of the

website in�uences buying decisions,” he said.

“SEOs have to really add CRO, or conversion

rate optimization, to their arsenal for both

desktop and mobile users. Also bear in mind

mobile devices have different sizes and

shapes; smart phones, tablets, ‘phablets,’ and

even the computer eyewear and emerging

VR (virtual reality) technology will change the

game even further.”

Social media has also changed the

way SEO specialists reach consumers.

Now, marketing teams need social media

specialists to help drive brand recognition,

Bush said. The evolution of SEO also has

created an employment boom in the industry.

The top US cities with the highest number of

SEO jobs are New York, Los Angeles, and

San Francisco, according to digital creative

staffing agency Onward Search. San Diego

ranks number thirteen. The average annual

salary for an SEO analyst/specialist in

San Diego is $41,000–$75,000; a content/

keyword strategist earns $64,000–$93,000;

an SEO manager makes $58,000–$86,000;

and an SEO/search marketing manager pulls

in $64,000–$113,000.

Besides landing well-paying jobs, those

who learn SEO also can boost their skills

and value for current and future employers,

Bush said. His UC San Diego Extension

classes, for example, include a mix of

university students, company owners, and

marketers.

“I want my students to understand the

principals of marketing, not just SEO,” he

said. “The foundation of marketing is being

able to apply these skills to their website

For Morgan Appel, director of the

Education Department at UC San Diego

Extension, the work he does is always based

on the fundamental traditions of research

universities, which are based on the three

pillars of research, service, and teaching.

While service and teaching are critical

to his work, research plays a pivotal role

because it informs the future.

“In everything we do, there is always a

research question, whether it be process or

content,” he said.

Appel, who has his bachelor’s and

MBA from UC Irvine and doctoral work at

Claremont Graduate University’s School of

Educational Studies, said the research he

does on education is both theoretical and

practical. Despite overseeing a department

that serves more than 8,000 students

annually, Appel said he still teaches about

three to four courses per year.

“I do that to continue that connection

and to keep my ear to the ground,” he said.

“It’s easy for me to muse about theory in my

office, but real insight into education requires

me to be there and to interact with people

who are doing the job.”

Through his hands-on teaching

experience and research, Appel has

written on everything from Common Core

to gifted students to adult education to the

importance of contextual learning.

By JENNIFER DAVIES

Five Trends Shaping Education in the 21st Century

MORGAN APPEL In his constant surveying of the landscape,

Appel said he sees �ve big trends shaping

education in the 21st century that will have

an impact on teachers and students.

These trends are:

Education is being rede�ned.Education is no longer the sole province of

schools and universities. Increasingly, other

institutions, including those in industry, are

employing education’s best practices to

provide training in the most effective and

impactful way.

“We are rede�ning where education is

happening,” Appel said. “We understand that

education is not only lifelong, but happens

everywhere.”


Global demand grows. The rede�nition of education, coupled

with a wave of retirements in the education

profession, is increasing the demand for those

who can teach and train.

This trend is particularly evident in the

world of occupational training, where the

pace of innovation requires workers to update

their skills constantly. That, in turn, translates

into a need for instructors or teachers who

can provide this niche training on a timely

basis. Appel stressed that this training is not

necessarily about specialization, but instead

is about skills integration.

“What we are looking for is not for

generalists in the traditional sense, but

creativity. It was a recipe that was very strict

and that assumed everyone has the same

pace and way of learning.”

He said this demand for creativity is

coming from industries and universities that

are looking for problem-solvers—not just those

versed in rote memorization.

“It is not enough to paint by numbers. You

must be able to paint a robust masterpiece,”

Appel said.

Technology drives innovation and personalization.

Technology, such as online learning,

is fundamentally changing education,

Appel said. It is leading to increased

The knowledge economy of today

requires that education moves beyond

formal coursework to provide “just-in-time

learning” through a variety of channels,

including mentorships, he explained. Simply

put, companies and trade organizations are

looking for ways to offer new information and

training in a time-efficient but fundamentally

sound way.

“Adult learners come to us with a host

of expertise and knowledge,” Appel said.

“What they are looking for is the mortar

between the bricks.”

people who can integrate and can take their

knowledge and apply it to new situations,”

he said.

Creativity makes a comeback. Standardized tests are out and creativity

is in when it comes to teaching, especially for

K–12 teachers.

“In education, the pendulum swings,

and it swings in very extreme ways, “Appel

said. “For the last 25 years, the discipline

was focused on standardization. The

consequence of that was a sapping of

personalization, allowing students to learn

on their time and their terms. It is also

fundamentally shifting the balance between

formal and informal learning.

“Education is now more of a learning

partnership,” Appel said.

But as the line between student and

teacher blurs, there is greater need to ensure

that all those involved in the learning process

are critical consumers of information.

“We help students understand where they

are getting their information and what they

should deem a credible source,” he said. “How

do you distinguish between CNN and Uncle

Billy’s Blog? It might seem intuitive, but really

it’s not.”

The need to see both the forest and trees.

Appel said there are common threads in

education around the world, and so it is critical

to know and understand the big picture on a

global basis.

“Though contexts may be different,

administrators and practitioners are compelled

to contend with similar issues and phenomena

worldwide,” Appel said. “That’s seeing the

forest.”

On the other hand, he said, each

learning experience needs to be understood

in the unique context in which it operates.

For instance, reading instruction is different

when it is designed for K–12 students

compared to adult learners at a community

college.

“As we move forward, these one-size-�ts-

all programs are not going to work anymore,”

Appel said. “That’s seeing the trees.” n

Standardized tests are out and creativity is in when it comes to teaching, especially for K-12 teachers.

“ What we are looking for is not for generalists in the traditional sense, but people who can integrate and can take their knowledge and apply it to new situations.”


Kim-Long Hua-Rupp knew he was ready

for a career change.

A screenwriter by training, Hua-Rupp

was paying his bills by teaching MCAT test

preparation courses in organic chemistry

while working on screenplays in his spare

time.

“It was a good job, but I felt like I was

stagnating,” he said of his test prep gig. “With

screenwriting, if you are stagnating in one

place, it shows up in other places.”

So Hua-Rupp made a bold choice: he

decided he wanted to challenge himself by

going to medical school.

At �rst, he thought he could teach himself

the material needed for the MCAT, but he

soon realized the folly of that approach.

“I had no background in biology,” said

Hua-Rupp, who graduated from UC San

Diego with a degree in �lm.

Even if he had been able to master

biology on his own, Hua-Rupp realized

he needed an edge when it came to the

competitive nature of the medical school

application process. In 2013, for instance,

nearly 58 percent of medical school

applicants were denied admission to any

medical school.

So Hua-Rupp began investigating

postbaccalaureate premedical programs,

which are designed to help prospective

medical students enhance their academic

records as well as prepare them for the

rigors of medical school. Because of the

steep medical school admission odds, there

has been an almost 50 percent increase in

the existence of these postbaccalaureate,

or “postbac,” programs since 2009, with

approximately 140 schools now offering them.

Hua-Rupp ultimately decided on UC

San Diego’s Post Baccalaureate Premedical

Program, which is run by Extension, because

the one-year program offered a shorter time

commitment compared to other programs and

it offered a more collaborative atmosphere.

“We all take classes together and we are

this big mob of postbaccalaureate students,”

he said. “We support each other and help

each other out. The support system you get

is just great.”

In fact, the vibe at the UC San Diego

postbac program, which accepts just 30

students per year, reminded him of the

American Film Institute (AFI), where he

received his master’s degree in screenwriting.

“There can be a really competitive

nature to medical school, but I feel like with

medicine, you have to be collaborative,” he

By JENNIFER DAVIES

KIM-LONG HUA-RUPP


added. “That’s why I liked AFI, because it was

a really collaborative place.”

In fact, the support system is just one

of the many similarities Hua-Rupp sees

between the seemingly disparate worlds

of medicine and screenwriting. First and

foremost, he said, both demand a high level

of dedication and hard work.

“The number one connection that comes

from writing is you need discipline,” he

explained. “In screenwriting, a lot of people

have talent. What differentiates you is

discipline.”

Hua-Rupp also said medicine and

screenwriting require you to be in tune

with and understand people’s needs and

backgrounds.

“You are mining human beings for

emotional truths,” he said. “You have to have

empathy and compassion for your characters

and your patients.”

But Hua-Rupp said UC San Diego

Extension’s Post Baccalaureate Premedical

Program has taught him about more than

teamwork and compassion. It has truly

prepared him for the academic challenges

that medical school will ultimately present

because he had access to all of the health

sciences resources at UC San Diego School

of Medicine, which is one of the top medical

schools in the country. He said the classes

in such subjects as biomedical science,

physiology, and biochemistry matched the

rigor of what is offered at medical schools

around the country.

“The curriculum is similar to what you get

in med school,” Hua-Rupp said. “It is really

intense, but that’s when you can �gure out

you can do it. I feel like I can go to medical

school with con�dence that I can succeed.”

The UC San Diego postbac program,

which is entering its fourth year, already

has helped others in their quests to

become doctors. From the �rst cohort

of postbac students, nearly 80 percent

of those who applied were accepted to

such medical schools as UC San Diego,

Michigan State, UCLA, UC Riverside, Stony

Brook in New York and the Medical College

of Georgia.

To assist with the application process,

postbac students also receive MCAT tutoring,

advising on how to apply to medical school,

and interview coaching. Hua-Rupp, who

graduated from the program this month

(June 2016), is ready to begin work on

the all-important personal statement. He’s

hoping his writing background will be a

help, and he envisions crafting the personal

statement as if it were a script.

“I’ll just do draft after draft after draft,”

he said. “That’s how you do it with

screenwriting—with hundreds of drafts.” n

Because of the steep medical school admission odds, there has been an Because of the steep medical school admission odds, there has been an almost 50 percent increase in the existence of these postbaccalaureate, or almost 50 percent increase in the existence of these postbaccalaureate, or “postbac,” programs since 2009, with approximately 140 schools now offering them.

Lee LaRosa

This photo says quite a bit about me - I have a super family at home as well as a fantastic family here at UC San Diego Extension. My work family makes it easy to want to come in every day.

Being a (rare) San Diego native gives me an appreciation for working at a school with a long and illustrious history that just so happens to be in my home town. The leaders in my department have created a work environment that allows us to work well together toward the common goal of reaching current and potential students. We enjoy seeing the results of our work knowing we may be helping students achieve their ultimate goal—whether it is personal enrichment, career advancement, or both!

The beautiful little girl in the photo is Paloma. She just turned 3 and as you can imagine is the light of my family’s life. She is our little superhero and is as fun as she looks. I’ll never forget just how happy and excited my co-workers were when I told them my wife Dunja was pregnant. I am lucky to work with such great and supportive people—my family here at UC San Diego Extension and particularly the public service and professional education division.

Self-funded MAS degree programs are typically tailored to the lifestyle and level of experience of mid-career professionals and may be taken on a full or part-time basis.

This may be a combination of a related undergraduate degree, speci�ed minimum GPA, relevant work experience, resume, letters of recommendation, and a statement of purpose with the application. See individual program websites for details.

What are some of the benefits of the degree programs?Through the program curriculums students develop core competencies related to their �elds of study. There are many networking opportunities with guest speakers, and individuals actively engaged in their respective healthcare careers.

Do I need to take the GRE/GMAT?No, the GRE/GMAT is not requiredfor admission to these programs.

Who are the faculty?Courses are taught by renowned faculty from the UCSD School of Medicine, California Western School of Law, and leaders in the healthcare, business, and law industries. See individual program websites for details.

Is there financial aid?Students may secure funding opportunities through a number of outside agencies, both government and nongovernment organizations and foundations. Commercial bank loans are available for students. There are some merit scholarship opportunities. See individual program websites for details.

UCSD Extension Certificates More Important than EverUCSD Extension introduced its �rst certi�cate program in 1966 as a vehicle for guiding and documenting post-baccalaureate study. Certi�cates have now become well-respected among working adults, employers, and institutions of higher learning, offering a practical, concentrated study in a speci�c professional area. Today, continual changes in the workforce and the increasingly divergent needs have made the certi�cate program an increasingly valuable tool for personal and professional development. Most of the certi�cates offered by UC San Diego Extension can be earned in one or two years at a cost between $1,875 and $3,200.

Who Benefits From a Certificate Program?• Savvy employers who understand that encouraging professional growth is one of

the best ways to attract and retain talented employees.• Career-oriented employees who want to acquire specialized training, or hone

existing knowledge and skills.• Skilled professionals who need to stay current with new developments in their �elds.

Financial AssistanceUCSD Extension is proud to work with

reputable lenders to provide certi�cate

students with an alternative for funding their

education. Students enrolled in Extension

courses do not need to �le a FAFSA form;

instead, students can apply online directly

with approved lenders to secure the funds

they need to pay for tuition and book fees.
